Burnett of nearly a thousand photographs though not yet recorded officially, is being classified by the librarian, Mrs. Mary Weeks, prior to their placement In the files. This js one of the finest additions to the photograph files that has come to the Art Institute for a long time, and will be very much appreciated by not only the students of tha school who make a great deal of use of our reference files, but by every student of art, because in the collection are the great masterpieces of Europe. The director of the institute hopes to have thousands of photographs added to the museum files so as to augment the exhibitions themselves, which are shown in the galleries. A small museum can seldom have great things of the world, but it can of course have the next best thing, which is first-class photograph reproductions.

c tu e 9tingle FROM THE DRAMATIC PAGE OF j ’’THE MORNING ARGOSY’’ Last night at the Iroquois Hotel, j before p. brilliant assemblage of guests, Mr. Richard Summers and j Miss Beatrice Grimshaw were mar- j ried. Rarely have there been seen as many flowers at a social function as at this wedding, the whole w*all be- . hind the improvised alter being hung ! with a canopy of La France roses, j the bride s favorite flower. This was done at the request of Miss Paula Perier, the brilliant young moving picture star, who has many friends in the city. Miss Perier, on the arm of Mr. John Alden Prescott, made one of the party following the bride. The best man and matron of honor were Mr. Sydney Carton and Mrs. Sally Atherton. A congratulatory' telegram was received from Mrs. Prescott, whose father shows a slight improvement. The bride was very' charming in the mald-of-honor costume that she had worn three years before at Mrs. Prescott's wedding. Mrs. Sally Atherton. a recent widow, was gowned in orchid chiffon, and Miss Perier was radiant in ceil blue chiffon heavily embroidered in pearl beads. The corridors of the Iroquois were filled all evening w'ith a curious crowd, hoping to see the famous moving picture star, but no one of tl ; arty made an appearance down stairsi.

Mr. and Mrs. Summers will accompany Miss Perier back to New' York today, where, after a gay week or two with friends, they will start on their trip across the continent to Hollywood, where Mr. Summers has bought a beautiful home in the foothills. Telegram From Prescott to Mrs. Richard Summers You cannot tell, dear, how sorry I was that we could not carry through our arrangements for your wedding. I know it was very beautiful from the wire which was sent me by Sydney Carton. He says you looked very happy, and that Dick had the beatific cast of countenance of the cat who has eaten the canary’. Dad is a little better and some hopes are held out for his recovery. Sorry I will not see you before you leave for the W’est. Remember, you have all my love and good wishes for your happiness. LESLIE. Telegram From I>esHe Preston to Sydney Carton Thank you so much for wiring me about Bee’s W’edding. Otherwise I should have known very little about it. My father is a sha.de better, but the crisis has not been passed yet. Knowing all that you do you will not expect' to see me before you leave for home. Will you wire me if the baby is all right. Did Paula Perier see him when she was there? Have written both to you and to my friend, Sally Atherton. Have not heard from Ruth and did not see her name among the guests, so expect she has gone to New York to meet Walter Burke. That was the reason I could not get hold of her when I left. Will you please send me her New York address if possible? You can get It at the shop. Thanking you Always, LESLIE. (Copyright, 1924, NEA Service, Inc.) Next.

Color Note Bu Times Special NEW YORK. Aug| 2.—Let the stockings supply the color note in the costume, is the advice of an importer who lias been urging black upon customers w'ho must make a good appearance on a meager income. Black gowns, black suits, black hats and black shoes, all are recommended by this authority as being very smart and also very kind and thrifty. Colored stockings will keep persons from thinking you are in mourning. They may' be nude, beige or gray, and if you are in particularly cheerful mood, blue, green or blush pink. There is nothing with which these colors can clash and by having a varied supply, variety enough is given the black costume. A bright llelt. an artificial flower, a string of bead, are also accesories to the black outfit, which liven it up and .give it character and distinction. dfi

IV/Tartha Lee's Column

Unfaithful Husband Dear Miss Lee: I was married last April. In less than a month, my husband called on another man’s wife. I caught them together. She had him leave me. She is old enough to be his mother, and has been married more than twenty years. They stooped so low as to send a man to me and tell him to say my husband did not care how often he came. What do you think of such a man and woman? My husband is 33. - After all that I am%ving with my husband. Os course. I am not happy. This woman has been writing letters to the place where my husband works. Could I find a way to stop her? It would save a lot of worry both ways if firms would not receive mail at their offices for their employes. I do not know which way to turn. Can you advise me? S. H. The logical, If not pleasant, way for you to turn is toward the relief the courts offer to women in positions like yours. It is unfortunate that you married such a man, but fortunate that you discovered his worthlessness before there ,were any children to be affected. Question of Time My Dear Miss Lee: Kindly inform me what length of time one should allow to elapse before answering a letter of a boy friend. "NOT YET SIXTEEN." I should say a girl “not yet sixteen” might write to a boy playmate about twice a month, if he is a particular friend.
